In addition to holding a valid passport, most countries set as a condition prior to admission of foreigners in to their territory the possession of a visa.
To meet this requirement, you need to contact the diplomatic services, consulate or the country you will have to travel to.
Obtaining a visa often requires a significant period of time (at least 48 hours to two weeks) between the initial application and issuance. Always think of making this move a month before your journey.
The validity period of your visa depends on the legislation of the host country. If your stay exceeds this period, you can be able to extend your visa in the country you are in.

Health authorities in some countries allow you to enter their territory only after examining your vaccination health booklet. These are mainly countries in Africa, Central and South America or Asia. As is the case in Cameroon, a certificate of vaccination against yellow fever may be required from any traveler who wants to enter Cameroon and other African countries.
Whether the vaccination is mandatory or not, it is strongly recommended to be vaccinated against yellow fever (validity of 10 years) for all countries where the disease exists or had existed tropical Africa and South America in the Amazon area.

Moreover, vaccination against hepatitis A and typhoid are recommended in countries where hygiene is considered unsafe. As for the vaccination against hepatitis B, it is justified because of the large number of carriers of this virus in the tropics. Vaccination against meningitis is recommended for Sub Saharan Africa.
Note that the vaccine may require several injections. A complete vaccination may take up to two months. In all cases, 10 days in a month will be necessary for one to acquire protection.
Your doctor is qualified to administer all vaccinations except yellow fever which must be performed in an accredited center or health services authorized in airports. For the vaccination of your pet, ask your veterinarian or your transporter.

Except for travel within Cameroon, where the possession of an identity card is sufficient, a valid passport is required for Cameroonian nationals who want to travel out of the country.
Some countries even require that such validity be effective at least six months after their date of entry and exit from their territory.
Remember to perform the passport-related formalities (Possession, renewal, extension) well in advance as they sometimes require a waiting period.

Never leave your passport in your hotel room or in your luggage. If you do not want to keep it on you, some hotels will accept the deposit in their safe.
If you lose your passport abroad, contact the services of the embassy or consulate of Cameroon established in the country where you are staying. In case of loss, photocopies of the first pages of your passport will be useful, they will facilitate the search for diplomatic or consular services.
